Words to a Young Girl

You need a man,

who will take care of you,

Protect you.

Provide for your family.

One who comes from a good family.

You must listen to him,

Respect his decision.

He is the leader of the home,

Do not question him.

Cover up,

Do not shame him.

Always have food ready,

When he comes home, after a long day's work.

Look after the kids,

That's your job.

He is there to provide,

He makes the house,

You make the home.

You do not need a man,

You can provide for yourself.

Pray for one who respects you,

Pray for one who reads to the kids,

Pray for one to make you breakfast in bed,

Pray for one who loves you.

You do not need a man,

But you can want one
